To Play the Radio
The ignition switch must be in the
ACCESSORY (I) or the ON (II)
position. Turn the system on by
pushing the VOL/PWR knob or the
AM/FM button. Adjust the volume
by turning the same knob.
The band and frequency that the
radio was last tuned to is displayed.
To change bands, press the AM/FM
button. On the FM band, ST will be
displayed if the station is
broadcasting in stereo. Stereo
reproduction in AM is not available.
To Select a Station
You can use any of five methods to
find radio stations on the selected
band: tune, seek, scan, the preset
buttons, and auto select.
TUNE
-
Use the TUNE knob to
tune the radio to a desired frequency.
Turn the knob right to tune to a
higher frequency, or left to tune to a
lower frequency.
SEEK
-
The seek function searches
up and down from the current
frequency to find a station with a
strong signal. To activate it, press
either (
or
), then release it.
SCAN
-
The scan function samples
all stations with strong signals on the
selected band. To activate it, press
the SCAN button, then release it.
You will see SCAN in the display.
The system will scan for a station
with a strong signal. When it finds
one, it will stop and play that station
for about 5 seconds (LX model) or 10
seconds (EX and SC models).
If you do nothing, the system will
then scan for the next strong station
and play it for 5 seconds (LX model)
or 10 seconds (EX and SC models).
When it plays a station you want to
listen to, press the SCAN button
again.
Preset
-
Each preset button can
store one frequency on AM and two
frequencies on FM.
1. Select the desired band, AM or
FM. FM1 and FM2 let you store
six stations each.
2. Use the tune, seek, or scan
function to tune the radio to a
desired station.
3. Pick a preset number (1
-
6), and
hold it until you hear a beep.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 to store a
total of six stations on AM and
twelve stations on FM.
